Some states recognize dyslexia as a specific type of learning disability and others do not. Conduct research about how West Virginia recognizes students with this disability. Research Maryland to see how they recognize students with dyslexia. Discuss the similarities and differences you see and describe why a lack of consistency in how states recognize students with dyslexia can present difficulties for students with dyslexia and their parents/guardians when they move from one state to another.
